175th Anniversary

 

 

2012 is our 175th Anniversary. The Company commenced trading in Liverpool in 1837 but in fact the family were in business in Hindley near Wigan several years earlier. The current Chief Executive, Peter, is the sixth generation to have worked in the company. The brothers Simon and Benjamin (5th generation) still take an active role although Benjamin is a farmer near Malmesbury in Wiltshire.

To mark this notable milestone the Group is planning a number of events. Open days will be held at the factories in Canal Street, Bootle and it is hoped that two lunches will be hosted – one in the North West and possibly one in the London area.

These events will be in addition to the Peter Marsh ‛Chase which will be run, as usual, at Haydock Park in January. The first race was run in 1981 when the winner was Little Owl who subsequently went on to win the Cheltenham Gold Cup. This was an appropriate winner as the Company’s logo is a barn owl! There will also be a day out for all employees – probably at Haydock Park on one of the popular evening fixtures in the Summer.
